Question

TRUE OR FALSE

1.In the flow of energy across the Earth’s subsystems, 100% of the radiant energy is transformed into glucose by photosynthesis and into ATP by aerobic cellular respiration.

2. Heat is always lost in the transformation of ATP, a chemical energy, into kinetic energy by a flying insect

3.Temperature is most intense within the Earth’s inner core making liquid.

4. The hydrosphere serves as a carbon dioxide sink by dissolving it.

5. Matter is conserved in each of the four Earth subsystems while energy flows across

Definition Definition Set of metabolic processes and reactions that produce energy from organic substances such as glucose. Cellular respiration takes place in the organism’s cells, where the chemical energy from nutrients or molecules of oxygen is converted into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration; in the absence of oxygen, it is called anaerobic respiration.
